GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
2.7 Separation, Dehydration and Processing: If Shipper's gas at a receipt point does
not conform to both Section 2.1(a) and (h), Transporter at its reasonable
discretion may require that some or all of the gas to be transported be processed
to remove liquid and liquefiable hydrocarbons prior to delivery to Transporter or
may require evidence that satisfactory arrangements have been made for the removal
of liquid and liquefiable hydrocarbons at a separation and dehydration and/or
processing plant on Transporter's system. In the event Transporter agrees that
separation and dehydration and/or processing will occur after delivery of
transportation gas to Transporter, Transporter and Shipper shall determine a
mutually agreeable charge for the transportation of liquid and liquefiable
hydrocarbons.
2.8 Waiver of requirements: Transporter may waive the requirements set forth in this
Section 2 in order to allow Shipper to tender or cause to be tendered gas which
does not, when injected into Transporter's pipeline, meet the quality
specifications set forth in Section 2; provided that acceptance of such gas shall
not adversely affect Transporter's system facilities or operations, and further
provided that once such gas has been blended, to the extent blending occurs, the
commingled gas stream at any delivery point on Transporter's system shall meet the
quality specifications set forth in Section 2. Transporter shall post on LINK® any
waiver of Transporter's gas quality requirements. Transporter shall implement this
Section 2.8 on a non-discriminatory basis and may cancel any waiver at any time if
necessary to assure that the commingled gas stream shall not adversely affect
system facilities or operations.
3. MEASUREMENT
3.1 Unit of Measurement: The transportation unit of gas received and delivered by
Transporter shall be a Dekatherm, unless otherwise indicated in this tariff.
3.2 Determination of Volume and Total Heating Value: The volume and the Total Heating
Value of gas received and delivered by Transporter shall be determined as follows:
(a) The unit of volume, for the purpose of measurement, shall be one (1) Cubic
Foot of gas at a temperature of sixty degrees (60() Fahrenheit, and at a
pressure of thirty-three hundredths (.33) pounds per square inch above an
assumed atmospheric pressure of fourteen and four tenths (14.4) pounds per
square inch (fourteen and seventy-three hundredths (14.73) pounds per
square inch absolute pressure).
(b) The Total Heating Value of the gas per Cubic Foot shall be determined by
chromatograph located on Transporter's transmission system, or located so
as to measure the heating value of the gas delivered into Transporter's
transmission system, or any other method mutually agreed upon.
(c) Dekatherms delivered shall be determined by multiplying the Mcf delivered
by the ratio of the Total Heating Value of the gas delivered to 1,000. For
purposes of this determination the specific gravity and heating value shall
be determined at approximately the same time.
(d) The temperature of the gas passing through the meters shall be determined
by a temperature transducer, other electronic temperature recording device,
a recording thermometer, or any other method mutually agreed upon, so
installed that it may properly record the temperature of the gas flowing
through the meters.
